Transcript

Being a private investigator means two things. You can be sure you'll run into trouble, and you can never be sure you'll get out of it. Not much you can do about it, I guess, except...

like Julie always says. Walk self-tlee. Please, a Troy. And now Peter Troy investigates a much-menaced mermaid. It always seems to me that dolls have one extraordinary outsize inferiority complex. And because of this, they have to go around telling everybody how men can't get along without them.

But it's true that women have definite attractions from the male point of view, and I'd be the last to give them the knock, while even my own mother was a woman and I haven't a word to say against her.

However, dolls, by and large, are not content to be attractive, but like to give out that they have brains as well. Take my secretary, Julie, for instance. She is very attractive, and she makes out okay as a secretary.

But she never loses an opportunity of reminding me how much help she is to me in my profession. And even if she doesn't have such an opportunity, she isn't inclined to dream one up. That which brings me to the case of Marina Keller, a mermaid and a heap of strife.

We put the way down. If you don't want to miss any part of this spectacular, great full performance. If you'll turn your attention to the local, for the next item in this nonstop, subplonative

water show, the water nymphs ballet will once again prove to you that they comprise the most The accomplished value of their kind in the world! Harry! Harry I must see you! Marina you were terrific, simply terrific, but then you always are.
